Escalation start message popup:

Escalation start
All through the battle, one of the Gurista cruisers was engaged in intense and thoroughly encrypted commmunications with some other ship in another system. Even though you didn't understand a thing of what was being said, your scanners successfully managed to locate the other party.

First Location

Warp In

NPCs at intial warp in.

Initial defenders

		WD	EWAR	L
	3-4 x Elite Frigate Dire Pithi Demolisher/Destructor/Plunderer/Wrecker
	3 x Battlecruiser Pithatis Assassin/Assaulter
	1 x Commander Frigate Dread Gurista Destructor

First Room

On warp-in
Gurista's Relay Officer: Who are you !? I wasn't told of anyone guarding our Viral Stash. If you don't give me identification codes immediately, I'll have to assume you're a looter.

Single enemy

container

		WD	EWAR	L
	1 x Elite Cruiser Guristas Relay Officer

		WD	EWAR	L
	1 x Viral Stash

Approaching the stash will trigger a one time dammage event (around 1000 dammage) and the following text:

On approaching the stash
"Someone has approached the Viral Stash too closely, triggering an explosion from a hidden trap nearby!"

Opening the stash triggers the following message:

On opening the stash
"In this container you find stacks of barrels containing viral agent, as well as a list of ship ID's, barrel ID's and times. Most of the times have passed, but the very last one is only a couple of minutes from now, perhaps if you intercept this ship that is supposedly arriving, you may find out more."

Escalation dead-end
Sadly, the datacore of this ship has taken a direct hit and any information stored there has gone up in smoke.

Escalation trigger

After a brief search of the ship's datacore, you find out that the Guristas, under contract from an unnamed third party, are supposed to disperse the viral agent in the atmosphere of two terrestrial planets in Caldari space. No information is given about which planets, but you do discover the coordinates of a rally point for the operation. It appears that a sizeable fleet was supposed to meet there.

Second Location

Single ungated pocket. Damage can be high if you trigger the extra waves before you have a chance to pair it down.

Simple warp-in can trigger escalation.

In local:
A ship pops into view. The ship has left almost immediately, probably as soon as it discovered your presence here. It left a nasty present for you, however. Right before the ship left, it deployed a number of drones. Prepare for a fight.
